The document discusses smart green cities and how they can address issues with existing city management systems. It describes a SENSE-THINK-ACT process where intelligent sensors are installed to sense city infrastructure components, large-scale data analysis is used to think by analyzing and forecasting conditions, and an automated and remote controlled system acts to systematically control the city's diverse facilities. The goal is to enhance quality of life through convenience, efficiency, safety and being more eco-friendly and beneficial for the environment.
